Protect uses the Earth Networks weather network to monitor potentially threatening weather conditions, including lightning activity, severe storms, heavy rainfall, high heat index, high wind gusts and more. It is also one of the first mobile applications to utilize the proprietary Earth Networks Total Lightning Network, which delivers real-time lightning warnings and is the only integrated intracloud (IC) and cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning detection network available nationwide.
Protect proactively alerts end-users when severe weather threats are detected or pre-defined weather thresholds are exceeded within their proximity. Protect supports email noticiation and provides administrators with a delivery status and end-user response message. In addition, the service may be extended via Earth Networks Protect Enterprise to serve as a broader notification platform enabling administrators and other officials to initiate their own alert messages.
